This issue has been fixed in mdadm (2.5.2-8) unstable from 27 Jul 2006. Current version is mdadm (2.5.3.git200608202239-2) unstable from 23 Aug 2006. Since the feature did just appear in mdadm (2.5.2-3) UNRELEASED from 7 Jul 2006 (and even just went to unstable with mdadm (2.5.2-7) unstable from 20 Jul 2006), it seems you were simply in quite bad luck :) regards Mario -- It is practically impossible to teach good programming style to students that have had prior exposure to BASIC: as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration. -- Dijkstra
